The forecast calls for sunshine... and more sunshine
Agoura Hills' consistent weather proves one thing: Southern California really only has one season -- sunny! Tepid temperatures occur year-round, even during the winter (November through March) when conditions typically max out in the low 70s. In fact, it's a marquee event on the rare occasion temperatures ever dip below freezing. If you book an Agoura Hills vacation rental from July through September get ready to the blast the A/C as scorching daytime highs often reach the 90s. Rainfall is rare, except in January and February, when monthly totals can range between 3.5 to nearly 5 inches.
Mountain lions, bobcats, and snakes... oh my!
The rush and thrill of the big city is never far away since Highway 101, which cuts through the heart of Agoura Hills, can take you to downtown L.A. in just 30 minutes. But this unique suburb is also nestled between the rolling Simi Hills and the lush Santa Monica Mountains. That means you don't have to go far to discover an untouched environment teeming with golden chaparral, mighty oaks, waterfalls, creeks, and canyons. With untamed regions come wild animals: mountain lions, bobcats, and rattlesnakes all call the rugged hillsides their home as well.
